Hi, I'm new, so go easy. I have just bought a E350 cdi estate, has done approx 8000 miles. I have always had bmw's in the past and more recently range rovers. A friend of mine has a c350 cdi and I love it, so after much deliberation I dismissed all others and bought this - and I love it...

Hi,
My 280SE has been a great runner and starter over the past few years and has only ever required servicing (by me) once a year. Over the festive period however I was out for a drive and when I took a sharp right hand bend (with about a 1/4 tank of fuel) the car started to cut out and 2...
I won't make this a long post on a Saturday evening,so,to précis:
Trader has a car I like. A little google research brings up(in the first three results) a disappointed customer(not the only one). Seems he bought a car(and not a cheap one) that had a bucket full of problems. Tried to resolve...
Requested a quote for a service at both of these dealers through their online enquiry tool. Neither has come back to me in 4 working days. Poor service. Have booked in with TMS now.
Tonight was the first evening when I've been out in Doris's recently bought SLK280 and had to use the headlights, or should that be energy saving candles.
Its an 08 reg (facelifted R171) and as far as I'm aware, they're not Xenons. They can't be. If they are, they're on their way out. Its a...

My car runs well most of the time but goes through bad patches when it behaves very badly with lumpy tick-over, sometimes stalling and decelerates when pressing the accelerator, and terrible fuel economy (10-15 mpg).
I can reproduce these symptoms by:
Leaving the car unused for about two...
I shall need some parts for my car sooner or later (later now it's passed the mot)
But I see posts where people say try MB as some original parts are no too expencive.
I filled out an online enquiry form on Monday including vin number etc. got a automated reply saying that they will get back...
This post is to be added to the pile of 'poor idle' threads that can be found on this forum - perhaps it might help others solve a very common and often an extremely persistent problem with their W124.
This post relates to 4 cylinder M111 engines like mine, and the 6 cylinder units built post...
I was a bit bored yesterday so I thought I would take a little drive to Brooklands and have a look around - especially on the top floor(AMG's). Was sort of hoping they might have the CLS shooting brake there as well. Checked the website for their opening times and off I went.
Imagine my dismay...
I’m having severe starting problems with my 300d om603.
So severe that it failed to start on the channel tunnel train last week. If any one of the two hundred or so behind me that were told to turn-off their engines is reading this, please accept my apologies.
I suspect air getting into the...

-- it catches then stops. Needs to be spun on the starter for a second or two. It never lets me down but is a nuisance.
Is this indicative of anything in particular ??
Thanks
Mike

Hi everyone,
I am new here. I own two Mercedes: a W211 E500 and an W140 CL420 Coupe. Today on the roundabout just around from my house, an old lady ignored the right of way and smashed into the front passenger side of my E500. I was turning off to the right. What a mess. She was following...
Hi everyone, my fathers 2006 E280 CDI (50,000 miles) is suffering from very low fuel consumption - around 21-22 MPG:doh: Took it for a diagnostic check at the local indie and an Upstream O2 Sensor / Lambda Sensor showed up as faulty (stored). Got the sensor replaced with a brand new one but the...
